When Bush invaded Iraq they found all the makings of those WMD's.

So, then Bush had a good reason to invade. Right?

Who are the $hitheads actually running this country, anyway?

You can have all the regulations in the world, but how effective are they, if no one is there to enforce them?

You mean, like the way the SEC FAILED TO ENFORCE the law against the staunch Democrat Madoff when he was reported for his Ponzi scheme in 2000, on Clinton's watch?

Then Madoff made large campaign contributions to Hillary Clinton's campaign.

Yes you're right. It's destroying our economy to let Madoff run loose like that in exchange for contributions for a failed campaign.

Do you know what I mean? People need vacation as human.

Also, Asian companies don't have to follow OSHA, EPA, EEOC, and all the other protection laws we have in the USA.

Many Asian workers die on the job, far more than USA companies.

Just as Hillary Clinton was leaving China after begging for money and 'forgetting" to talk about human rights, 70 Chinese coal miners died in a coal mine explosion.

We don't have those explosions here, because about 100 years ago we passed laws that require mines to have safety practices that prevent those explosions.

The Asian companies save money by killing their workers.

You are a freaking joke. First off sub-prime loans have beeen outlawed and no bank or mortgage company could give one if they wanted. And quit making up lies to try to bolster you position. I could say my neighbor does alot of things to but you have no proof. That is what they call in law HEARSAY. No proof it happened.

Real credible, isn't it?

When something starts off with "I know a guy.......", 99.9% of the time it turns out to be BS.

But weeblepeople usually does post NOTHING but BS, so no surprise there.

Wow talk aboutt re-writing history. You are simple minded aren't you. Clinton had inspectors in Iraq to make sure sadaam did not make and more WMD's like in the early 90's those inspectors had been there since the end of the war on Bush 41's watch as part of the surrender agreement with Sadaam..
Clinton did not attack Iraq. He made one airstrike and sadaam let the inspectors back in.
As far as congress goes they were lied to and manipulated by falsified documants that the bush administration presented to not only them but the UN. Had congress or the UN had the correct intelligence presented to them they would have never voted to invade Iraq.
Try getting your history straight.

You're wasting your time.

He's a Bush apologist, trying to blame everything on Clinton or Obama, all while pretending that Bush was NEVER the president.

That in itself is the single biggest condemnation of the failed presidency, than any facts could ever offer up - when even his own supporters deny the existence of his entire presidency!!!!

Sorry, wrong again.

When did banking deregulation happen? Clinton signed it into law after it passed with overwhelming bipartisan support in both houses of Congress - only 8 senators voted against the final version.

When did staunch Democrat Madoff get turned in to the SEC for the biggest financial fraud in history? In 2000, on Clinton's watch.

It was the LACK OF OVERSIGHT that allowed the companies to run amok.

You can have all the regulations in the world, but how effective are they, if no one is there to enforce them?

I was just talking to my neighbor in the home building business. He says they just closed on 10 houses last week - all subprime mortgages.

Looks like you're the one shooting blanks.

How is your "neighbor" privy to the terms of these loans?

[hungry1968-15]

"After working in the corporate world as a staff recruiter, he was laid off in November. He had a six-figure income. Now he has a case worker."

"He's already six months behind on his $3,100 mortgage, and one of his two cars has been repossessed."





He had a six-figure income FIVE MONTHS ago, but is SIX MONTHS behind on his mortgage?

Bushy and his gang dumped this all on us!

Guess what, Bush isn't president anymore. Obama is.

It's time to stop blaming Bush and start holding Obama accountable.

The economy went down this time of year in Bush's first year, only three months after he took office. People are still blaming Bush for that.

They say Bush ended the Clinton prosperity. It happened in March/April 2001. And people blame Bush for it.

So now it's Obama's turn to take the blame.

TIME'S UP for blaming everything on Bush. It's time for Obama to start shouldering the blame.
